Lolita Abramyan
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Trauma can impact every part of ourselves; the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. Trauma, no matter how big or small, makes us feel that we do not have control over our lives and are vulnerable to threat. Trauma often stays in the body and the subconscious mind, until we are ready to address it. With a focus on the nervous system and its role in storing trauma, I provide my clients with a safe, nurturing environment in which they can express and explore their trauma from the past or present. Using practical tools based in CBT, Mindfulness, and Somatic-informed approaches, I help my clients process the trauma in a gradual way. Trauma does not have to control your life. My goal is to collaborate with my clients to help them overcome it and move forward.

Trauma is an event or experience that is deeply distressing or upsetting, and can have long-lasting effects on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. PTSD, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, is a mental health condition that can develop after exposure to a traumatic event, such as a natural disaster, combat, sexual assault, or a car accident.
PTSD can cause a range of symptoms, including intrusive thoughts and memories of the traumatic event, avoidance of reminders of the trauma, and negative changes in mood and cognition. These symptoms can interfere with daily life and relationships, and may lead to other mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.
Effective treatments for PTSD include psychotherapy, specifically Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and medication. Trauma-focused therapy can help individuals process their traumatic experiences, develop coping skills, and reduce symptoms of PTSD. If you or a loved one is struggling with the effects of trauma or PTSD, it is important to seek help from a licensed mental health professional to receive a proper diagnosis and develop a comprehensive treatment plan.
